Sam's Splish-Splash Birthday Party

We decided to throw a "low-key" birthday party for Sam this year.  It's funny how we thought we would make everything low-key, but somehow it was still a three day celebration for Sam!

Thursday, the night before his birthday, we had our family over for pizza, cake, and ice cream.  This was the gift-fest.  Sam was showered with presents from his aunts, uncles, and grandparents.    He got a Buzz Lightyear toy, a talking Woody doll, a lawn mower that blows bubbles, pool toys, a new seek and find book, a Cars sleeping bag, and a Braves baseball cap.  He also got some fun cards that play music and talk.  He's already worn those little batteries out!

Then...we did cupcakes at school on his birthday.  I was proud of the baseball cupcakes this year...they look a little more like baseballs than the ones I did last year!  The class sang happy birthday and enjoyed the cupcakes with each other.



Then...came the party with his friends.  We invited a few of his little buddies over for some backyard splish splash fun.  We had a mini- jump house that his friend Carter let us borrow and two baby pools for this kids to play in.  I think the kids had a fun time.  Patrick slept through the whole party!  After the party was over, Sam actually said to me, "Mommy, I need a nap".  I don't think he's ever asked for nap time!  Here are a few pictures from the party.




Happy Birthday, Sam!  We love you!
